Iron Man 3 wasreleased in 2013 whenJenna Ortegawas just ten years old. Even though the role she played in the movie was quite a minor one and the character had no name, she was the driving point for something much bigger. Her father, Vice President Rodriguez joined hands with Aldrich Killian to overthrow the government in the hope that Killian, the creator of Extremis, could help his daughter.

Now, how could Killian, the antagonist of the film, possibly be of any help to a child? Well, the Vice President’s daughter had lost her leg and Extremis can help her regenerate the lost limb. Rodriguez’s motive behind helping Killian was simply to see his daughter get better. As we know it, the plan didn’t come to fruition as Killian was defeated and Rodriguez ended up getting arrested.

Praise for Jenna Ortega

Ortega found herself on the receiving end of a truckload of love and praise for her work as Wednesday Addams. Fans believe that she did a great job bringing the character to life with her portrayal. The love she is getting seems to be fair, especially after how dedicated she was toward the role. Apparently, Ortega had a whole mood board for what she wanted her character to be like, which somehow included the singer,Billie Eilish. The actress even had to take a few classes for the role, including learning German, playing the cello, and some archery and fencing classes.

She even did her own research on theGoo Goo Muckdance which is heavily trending on the Internet. She stated that she got her inspiration from videos of “goth kids dancing in clubs in the 80s.”
